    They are also giving out the vouchers now, £5 off skincare and £3 off make-up, although it does state you can only use one voucher per transaction. I guess they got annoyed last time everyone was using the two together ;)?

    Unless you can still use the two together? Worth a try anyway, i will be tomorrow - fingers crossed! 3 nail varnishes and a gift box for £8 seems a bargain to me :)

    last time this voucher was out, the tillspit one from the SS tills was the 2 vouchers together on one tillspit, and if you used it when you bought No7 items at an SS till it automatically took the £3 and the £5 off if you had at least on skincare and one make-up item in your purchases.

    Worth a note, you have to buy 2 make-up products to get the free gift. So if you buy 2 nail varnishes and some wipes, surely the 2nd nail varnish won't register as being bought so you won't get the gift set free? Any light shed would help! :)

    usually, the 342 discount doesn't kick in until the very end of the transaction. So, for example, I'd put the 2 nail colours through, then the free gift, then the no7 wipes. The free gift would give a happy beep as there are 2 make-up items in your purchases, then when you pay, thats when the 342 would be calculated and one of the nail colours would be free. With the £5 off skincare (wipes) and £3 off make-up (nail colour) it should be £4.50 for the 3 items, plus the free gift as well.

    Add a packet of chewing gum to take it over £5, another voucher back and repeat ;)

    You get these vouchers from Boots when you spend £5 in a single transaction.

    Yeh, that's what i was thinking, but we don't have any SS tills in our little local store so i may have to hand 1 over at a time lol. Wasn't sure if someone else had tried it yet incase it didn't work, as i mentioned before the vouchers say only 1 can be used per transaction.

    Also worth a mention, it wasn't until i checked my receipt this morning i noticed i was charged £6 for the nail varnishes instead of the £5.50 shelf price, so make sure you check when buying. Will be off to get my refund tomorrow and another set :)

    Vic centre Nottingham does, but they are all on the No7 assistants' desk, they are not on display.

    I got another set today, the lovely assistant told me you cannot use the 2 vouchers together, you can only use the make-up or the skincare separately.

    Anyway, i purchased 2 nail varnishes, the free gift and a packet of wipes. As the assistant was telling me about the vouchers she told me to use the skincare voucher as it gives more money off!

    The nail varnishes still went through at £6, not £5.50 as displayed in store and online, and the wipes went through at £7. I used the £5 skincare voucher and paid £8 for the wipes, 2 nail varnishes and the free gift :)
